Ah finally, Windows and Cheap chinese android phone have something in common. Ads in their built in
bloatwaresapps.Cheap chineseAll android phoneNot Fairphones. Fairphones are ad-free, bloatware-free and privacy-focused.
FP4 user here. while that is true, any android ROM with google services on it isn’t privacy-focused.
but i don’t want to miss out on clash of clans, so here i am using their bullshit spyware.
Their mission is amazing but I’m not going to sit here and pretend any Google-laden Android isn’t also ad-laden.
The Murena Fairphones in the U.S. are de-googled. They have replacements for pretty much everything, including email. You can import your google contacts. You can import your google calendar into the de-googled calendar and access it from app or web just like the google version. The only google stuff on my fairphone is what I put on it myself. And I can still download and run every app on the google play store if I choose.
That’s awesome, never heard of this! I was referring to the stock Fairphones, which are absolutely Google-filled. But if someone is reselling them with all that crap stripped then that project is for sure worthy of recognition.
I would not say all some of us run Graphene OS with Google Play Services stripped from Android.
Well, that’s fair. You’re an absolutely miniscule minority of Android users though
That is very true indeed but my battery lasts for 2 days though because of it so I’ll call that a win.
Tbh so does my stock Xiaomi. I don’t have a google account on it though.
Where do the battery gains come from?
I’m guessing it’s a combination of general optimizations, Google Play services & store not having the same level of background and network capabilities, and more control over background apps in general.
OK. I have no google services running but do not get amazing battery. Its probably because I have a couple of messaging apps awake in the background though. I tried self-hosting push notifications but didn’t get it working reliably.
This is what I do I self host pretty much most of my services.
I would guess google play services
So google play services on android along with Google store are installed in the root system the can basicly do whatever the want permission wise play services is always running in the background and is a huge battery drain by not having it installed at all you are gaining more battery life.
Consider most recent offering from china does not have Android One option, this statement is true. Few years ago Xiaomi sell several of their line up with Android One variant that strictly only contain Google Apps only.
As long as your phone have snapdragon soc, most likely the community have made custom rom for that model. But if you want something more hardened out of the box like GrapheneOS, you’re out of luck.
Moto G60s, I can’t remember the last ad I have seen.
